I hate ads.

That's it. That's all I wanted to say. Just loathe them with a burning passion. More than i do anything else in my day to day life. I feel an urge to scream it into the world every single day just how much i despise ads and whoever invented them.

I hate ads.

I can't escape them. I feel like i'm trapped in a sick psychological torture experiment. Can't even go outside for a walk without seeing them everywhere. This is not how human beings should live.

I hate ads.

Do the people who make ads not feel any shame for what they are doing? Stop trying to sell me your shit, i don't want it! I don't want to give you my money, stop trying to take it away from me!

I hate ads.

    I’m always amazed by how much of the neoliberal economy is held up by ads. Producers want people to buy their products so bad that they literally throw away hundreds, thousands, millions of dollars so that 1.0% of us rubes might click a link or go to a drive-thru.

    My brother works in marketing. He’s explained the ROI for ads. I just don’t believe it. It’s a fucking shell game.
